Portugal on Snooth
Well you got me going, Greg, so I went back and looked at my wine purchases ... from Germany and one from Portugal. By varietal, cabernet/merlot, pinot noir, chardonnay, syrah, nebbiolo, grenache, riesling, sangiovese,...
Beautiful, pure chocolate, with mint and fruit. Very, very young, still very drinkable.
Interesting comments. I think people forget that Australia produced fortified wines for many years. Even more interesting is that they were using Touriga Nacional in 1979. From the guys I've spoken to, I got the...

I think I agree it's not what else so much as who else. Speaking of malbec, ... want Port, you need to go to Portugal. The problem I have with the Australian ports is that they tend to be too sweet and in fact, that's...
